Original file

After I open the attached .xlsm file, I modify some cells, and I resave it, I can't open it in Microsoft Excel 2010 or in LibreOffice 3.6.0. The file become corrupt, and I lost it.

Testcase:
Open the attached file in LibreOffice 3.6.0, insert in cell S20 the "1" value, save it in Microsoft Excel format. After I reopen the file in MS Excel 2010 or in LO 3.6.0 I got an error message.

I try in LibreOffice 3.5.5, after save, I can reopen it in LO 3.5.5 and LO 3.6.0 but I can't open it in MS Excel 2010.

Confirmed on Windows Vista 32bit LO 3.6.0.4

If I save the sample document in "Excel 2007/2010 XML(.xlsx)", and then open in Office 2007, I get an error "Excel found unreadable content. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook?"

When I click "Yes" I get:

Excel completed file level validation and repair. Some parts of this workbook may have been repaired or discarded.
Removed Part: /xl/styles.xml part with XML error.  (Styles) Load error. Line 2, column 16185.
Repaired Part: /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part. 
Repaired Part: /xl/worksheets/sheet3.xml part with XML error.  Load error. Line 2, column 67592.
Removed Feature: Hyperlinks from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part
Removed Feature: Conditional formatting from /xl/worksheets/sheet3.xml part
Removed Records: Named range from /xl/workbook.xml part (Workbook)
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet2.xml part
Repaired Records: Column information from /xl/worksheets/sheet2.xml part
Repaired Records: Conditional formatting from /xl/worksheets/sheet2.xml part
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet3.xml part
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet4.xml part

The spreadsheet *looks* reasonable then... at first glance anyway.

In LO 3.6.04, if I open the file I get:

"General Error. General input/output error"

The document then doesn't open at all.

Comment 3 Ákos 2013-09-23 08:16:05 UTC
I try it with LibreOffice 4.1.2 RC2, after modify the file, I can open it in LibreOffice 4.1.2 RC2 but I can't open it in Microsoft Excel 2013. I got the error:
